Smart, Ethical, and Responsible

I am an unaffiliated voter and I support Peter Barrett for our next judge of probate without reservation. I believe you can tell something about how a person will perform as a judge by looking at how they have performed as an attorney. In the course of my own career, I have had many dealings and interactions with Peter Barrett in his role as an attorney. He is smart, ethical, and responsible and commands the respect of his fellow attorneys and the public. It is no surprise that he has achieved the highest rating from his peers in both legal ability and ethics.

I also know Pete from his many years of service to this town, both in formal and informal capacities. Even while he was our town attorney, he was also a commissioner and coach in our youth basketball league! He is a good person, and we're fortunate he's running for this important position. He will have my vote on Nov. 4, and I hope your readers' as well.
